I made these for the annual cookie exchange at Moises' office. I had been wanting to try this recipe for ever and thought this would be a good opportunity. These have definitely made it to my top favorite list of goodies. They are sure to be crowd pleaser!(Makes 4 dozen)
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar, plus 1 Tbs
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour, plus 1/4 cup
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 Heath candy bars
1 bag Rolo chewy caramels
Preheat oven to 374
In a medium bowl, beat butter and sugars until fluffy, then add eggs and vanilla and beat well.
In a separate bowl, mix 2 1/2 cups flour, cocoa, salt, and baking soda. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture a little bit at a time and blend well. If the dough feels too sticky, sprinkle in a little extra flour. Cover and chill dough in fridge for about 30 minutes.
Chop Heath bars into small pieces. Place in a small bowl and toss with 1 Tbs sugar.
Once dough has chilled, wrap a piece around each caramel, forming a 1-inch ball and covering the candy completely. Dip top of the dough ball into the candy topping and place on parchemnt-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 7 to 10 minutes. Cookies will look quite soft, but do not over bake. Cool in pan slightly, them move to a rack or the counter to finish cooling. Store in a covered container.
